The Italian comments dealing with the results of the French-British naval treaty were not received with enthusiasm in Paris. The Italian demand that Italy ought to have a navy comparable with the French navy wasn’t accepted in France. Havas referred to an item in the Matin which said that France had to defend an territory much larger as that of Italy and if both navies had a similar strength would give Italy the superiority in the Mediterranean.
Rome, 9 October. In the Italian newspaper Lavore d’Italia was a comment published dealing with the above mentioned treaty and pointed out that Italy being a large Mediterranean power would play in each new conflict a important roll. The Italian navy wasn’t able to compete with the other naval powers regarded the number of capital ships with a measurement larger as 10,000 ton. The total strength of her navy wasn’t sufficient enough at that moment to be feared by any power which wanted to act in the Mediterranean.
